What kind of man would buy a used urinal for $23? A financially savvy man with a vision, that's who.
Mike Kozan purchased the urinal from the old Pontiac Silverdome a year ago and brought it to a local mall in Detroit for Lions legend Barry Sanders to sign. Despite likely being grossed out, Sanders obliged.
"Barry felt bad turning him away after he had lugged the thing down there and waited in line," Sanders' agent J.B. Bernstein wrote in an email to ESPN last week. "It was really my fault because urinals are not listed in the items that Barry won't sign."
Kozan recently took said urinal and put it up for auction on eBay where it sold for $3,000. He noted that he plans to donate around 10 percent of the funds to charity.
Very classy.
